Sharing photos of Eiffel Tower clicked at Night is now Illegal

Here’s something depressing – Clicking or sharing photos of the Eiffel tower at night is a copyright violation and could possibly land you paying a heavy fine (this law has obviously not stopped the selfie-clicking masses though).

Torrent Freak website explains that although the building itself is infact open for public only, but as the light show that illuminates the Eiffel Tower at night is an artistic work, and as such ‘reproducing’ it (i.e. snapping a photo) would require the permission of the artist.
